The Directors Fortnight section at Cannes has said yes to "No," Chilean director's Pablo Larrian's look at the referendum that ended Pinochet's reign in that country. On Friday, the film won the top prize at the Directors Fortnight, a section that runs concurrently with the Cannes Film Festival.

Earlier this week, Sony Pictures Classics acquired North American rights to the film, which stars Gael Garcia Bernal as an ad man working on the campaign to persuade votes to give Pinochet a no vote.
